Blubirde....


Thanks so much for your post.  You were so sweet.  I try not to let others' judgments influence my behavior, but I am going to try not to be so naive(sp?) about it.


And I didn't mean to through the law school thing in there to talk down to people or brag, I just truly feel like it is an experience like no other and adds some crazy pressure.  I've done grad school before, but is wasn't like this.  And it is so true about the drinking...just about all of us have done stupid things in the past two years.


I feel like people on this forum can come across a little harsh sometimes, but I am so thankful for it.  I am so in denial about my own faults, so it is nice to have this place to get feedback.


Thanks again for your post.

I know what you mean about being in denial of your own faults. I'm always quite shocked when someone points out flaws in my behavior. It's like, what? I can do something wrong?  But I'm so good at pointing out how others are wrong. How can this be that I am wrong too? No. It must be a mistake. Definitely an apt description of denial. But that's why this forum is good. I'll post things and people point out the most obvious things (and probably question my sanity). I'm always flabbergasted that I somehow managed to miss things so blatantly right in front of my face. I guess it's the fun of being human, no?


So how's the relationship with the friend going?
